This photo taken during a media tour on October 11, 2024 shows scientist Wang Yifang, Juno project manager and director of the Institute of High Energy Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, speaking during an interview with AFP at the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) in Kaiping, in southern China's Guangdong province. Far beneath the lush landscape of southern China, a sprawling subterranean laboratory aims to be the world's first to crack a deep scientific enigma. China's showpiece is the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (Juno), a state-of-the-art facility for studying the minuscule subatomic particles.
